Thanks JPSAndyJ   I would just have recommended the use of the Outlook for iOS app but the current app does not provide ready integration with iOS contacts, making it hard for users who want a global contact set on their phones.

Jim_Hill Same with us.  We used that as a "quick fix" until we figured out the whole MFA situation on iOS, but users weren't happy with the fact that it didn't sync their phone contacts & calendars.

 

It is a great workaround though in the event that all else fails.

    JPSAndyJ  There is a way to sync O365 contacs to iPhone contacts.

      I never saw that before. Thanks, I’m looking into the sync function.
